|---|---|---|---|
| Criterion | Value | Proof(s) | Comment |
| Known hardware tampering | Rare | [1] | Apple's integrated hardware design and Secure Enclave make unauthorized physical modification extremely difficult, limiting this threat to highly sophisticated, nation-state-level attacks. |
| Known vulnerabilities | Very common | [2] | iOS is a high-value target for researchers and attackers alike. Apple consistently finds and patches vulnerabilities, so the discovery of new ones is a very common and expected part of the security lifecycle. |
| Prior attacks | Very common | [3] | The iOS platform is frequently targeted by sophisticated spyware (e.g., Pegasus), phishing, and social engineering attacks. While user-facing malware is less common than on Android, the overall attack attempts are very common. |
| Updatability | Very common | [4] | Apple provides the industry's leading software update policy, offering many years of consistent, timely, and widespread OS and security updates for all supported devices. |

|---|---|---|---|
| Criterion | Value | Proof(s) | Comment |
| Authentication with other systems | Full | [5] | "Sign in with Apple" provides a secure, privacy-focused authentication method, and the OS fully supports other modern standards for integration with third-party services. |
| Communications | Encrypted with up-to-date encryption | [6] | iOS enforces strong, up-to-date encryption standards like TLS 1.3 for app communications (ATS) and supports the latest standards like WPA3 for Wi-Fi. |
| Storage | Encrypted with up-to-date encryption | [7] | All data on an iPhone is protected by default with file-level encryption (Data Protection), using hardware-backed keys managed by the Secure Enclave. |
| Category score | 1 | ||
| User Authentication | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Criterion | Value | Proof(s) | Comment |
| Account management | Full | [8] | iOS provides comprehensive management of the user's Apple ID / iCloud account directly within the settings, including security, payment, and synced services. |
| Authentication | Secure | [9] | Authentication is handled by hardware-level biometric systems (Face ID or Touch ID) and a passcode, with credentials protected within the Secure Enclave. |
| Brute-force protection | Exist | [10] | The device will become disabled for progressively longer periods after multiple incorrect passcode entries, protecting it against brute-force attacks. |
| Event logging | Access event logged | [11] | While local system logs are not user-facing, the Apple ID system logs all critical security events (e.g., new device sign-ins, password changes) and actively notifies the user. |
| Passwords | Require change after setup with complexity requirements | [12] | A passcode is mandatory during device setup, and the system enforces minimum complexity rules (e.g., default is a 6-digit PIN). |
